Search Results: money or happiness

To me less is more and I'm generally a minimalist. I think things should just serve as tools and necessities to help live and enjoy life and the middle path is the way to go not too much not too little. The thing I hate about our society is that everyone and especially a lot of women are obsessed with money and material things. No matter how much money or things people have they are never happy they always want more and more and more sometimes even if it's at the expense of others because in the end desire leads to suffering. I really don't have much respect for materialistic women. Like it's not because I wanna be "cheap" and not pay for things like going out to eat, going places, doing things, getting gifts like some of that's alright but I never want girls to use me for that reason and like I don't know there's more to life and being happy than spending and buying things all the time, that's not the way I want to primarily show my affection for someone and I know some of you might say "well what other way are we suppose to know if you will be able to support your partner and a family" there's a difference between material excess and making a living a sharing a life together. How much I love and care about someone should not depend on how much I spend on them on a given date. Happiness is a state of mind that you find within yourself I think love transcends the material physical realm of our existence and I want a girl who will love me for who I am, what I stand for and how I choose to experience life not how much I have in my bank account and what kind of car I have and how much crap I can buy her etc ect. I really don't think I'm out of line here but I want to get a general scope of what you ladies think.

I think we all can agree that there will never be a utopia when it comes to us yet this brings up another question, Do we need Conflicts & Wars to validate our happiness?

I'm not talking about crimes, I'm referring to countries starting wars with each other and fighting over nonsense.

Wars fought over because of money, religion, revenge, justice, etc, Yet some people seek problems because they are bored and they want to fight because that's all they know and enjoy.

So what do you think?
